B4 Steering issue

[westie]

Alright guys, seem to have a problem with the steering on my b4, while racing i seem to have more bite turning right than left. ive rebuilt the shocks and checked to see if all the suspensions free also all the bearings are fine. ive set the steering so it just hits the stops on the hub carriers both sides. what could this be? tweeked chassis? if thats possible

Thanks for any advice

Check your diff, and rear wheel bearings as well. The rear bearings tend to get full of grit occasionally.

Do you rotate your tyres left to right of an evening?
Could be that the are wearing more one side than the other....

Other thing you might have on your transmitter, is differing expo on left to rightm worth going through your handset, and setting eveything back to zero/neutral settings.

Hope this helps!

Check the turning circle.

What I've started doing now is knocking the steering rates down to about 80% and making sure the car turns in even circles left and right. Adjust the end-points if it doesn't. Then re-set the steering rates to suit the track.

I had something similar on my old B4 ( Gen. I )

The thing I had that al full lock to the left the servo saver was touching the middle "pole" on the chassis for the topplate. Eventhough at full lock the steeringblocks were able to touch the casterblocks but the left still felt sloppy because of the "chassis limitation".
I did grind the middle pole a little and now at full lock, it really locks instead of just lightly touching.
I do have to admid that this is with running the inline axles on a casterblock forward position. Something AE never really intended to be done.

Glue the servo saver

if the thread is exposed on the steering block it fouls at the extremes of suspension travel
